Rosie O’Donnell and Kelly Carpenter haven’t been living together since August, if the National Enquirer was to be believed. And now they’re going their separate ways entirely, Rosie told an interviewer after dropping hints on her blog. But, the former talk show host says: “We’re a family. We will remain a family forever. And we are working on our issues.” (They’ve got three kids together, after all.) The same week the pair married (in San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom’s office), George W. Bush announced he’d try to constituionally ban same-sex marriage. WELL. So long as we’ve got Ellen and Portia, we can remain strong.

Surviving 5 years is worth celebration. Between all the problems that we all face in a relationship, then celebrity,..

I feel sad, too. I know Rosie can be a difficult person, but she has a good heart.

What happened? Did Kelli refute her 9/11 paranoia? Did she admit that “Rosie Live” a bomb that made Hiroshima look like a butterfly fart? Remember, she advocated from the Queen of Nice pretty quickly.

Saddened by the breakup, you appeared to be the perfect couple and family, for the children it will be difficult, but I wish you both muck happiness and maybe you can work things out.
